Moov, is a company after my own heart with their fitness tracker you only wear when you work out! Using 3D motion sensor technology, it tracks and analyses activity via a built-in coach that will literally kick your butt with words to get you moving.

At the brilliantly affordable price of $59.95 you sure do get a lot of bang for your buck. With nine axis Omni motion sensors, unlike rival trackers, the Moov Now can measure a wide range of motion.

The Moov comes with two bands, one for your wrist and a longer one to be strapped around your ankle should you so desire, it has a soft rubber mesh exterior and it does look quite eye catching. A single LED light indicates when the Now is synchronized with your smartphone and yes you still need to be tethered to it but a bonus is that it is waterproof up to 30m and has 6-month battery life for you adventurists out there.

The Now tracks the usual plethora of activities including running, walking, cycling, swimming and features daily activity tracking and sleep tracking.

Overall, we found the Now to be extremely accurate and offers more reliable data than other much more expensive activity trackers on the market. If you are someone that needs that voice chirping in your ear telling you you run faster, swim longer and cycle harder than the Moov Now is for you!
